Chicago Web Design & Development Studio

Question 1

What kinds of projects are a good fit for Homade?

Answer

Homade is a strong fit for teams that need a brand system, marketing website, custom web application, or a combination of those services. The best engagements have a clear business problem, access to decision makers, and a team that values direct collaboration with the person designing and building the work.

Question 2

How long does a typical website or application take?

Answer

Timing depends on the scope, content readiness, integrations, and review process. After reviewing the brief, Homade provides a written scope with realistic milestones and a target launch date so you know what is happening and when decisions are needed.

Question 3

How does pricing work?

Answer

Clearly defined projects are usually priced as a fixed scope. Ongoing maintenance, SEO, and iterative product work can use a recurring plan. Pricing, assumptions, and what would count as additional work are agreed in writing before the engagement begins.

Question 4

Who will I work with during the project?

Answer

You work directly with Kevin Jacobs, Homade’s founder, across strategy, creative direction, design, and development. When a project needs additional expertise, trusted senior collaborators may join for specific disciplines while Kevin remains accountable for the work and communication.

Question 5

Can Homade support the site or application after launch?

Answer

Yes. Homade can continue with maintenance, accessibility improvements, SEO and AEO work, new pages, feature development, and performance updates. The goal is to keep the system useful and improving instead of treating launch as the end of the relationship.

Question 6

Can you improve an existing website, or do you only build new ones?

Answer

Both. Homade can audit and improve an existing website, rebuild a site that has outgrown its current system, or start fresh when the brand, structure, and technology all need to change. The recommendation follows the problem rather than forcing every project into a rebuild.
